will be the third such walk in a planned series spanning the balance of the
year.

with staff deploying from the lot of Crema & Vine located at the corner of Main and Holbrook. As the newest venture
into the areas revitalization efforts it is important to note the continued
interest in citywide revitalization and focus on crime and safety. Chief Booth and
his staff will divide into teams and go door to door to houses in the areas
between Holbrook and Jefferson (west to east) and Grove to Green (north to
south) as time permits. These walks serve as a platform to build public trust
and develop positive relationships between officers and community members.
